No longer to a future Heaven,
In a far-off, unknown land,
I turn my eager, longing gaze;
For Heaven is close at hand.
It lies about me everywhere,
This realm of harmony;
It is the consciousness of Love,
Which Truth unfolds to me;
And every truthful word and deed.
And every loving thought,
And every triumph of the right,
With Heaven's own peace is fraught.
With every false belief denied,
And every error slain,
I rise to higher consciousness,
And clearer vision gain.
And so my eyes are ope'd to see,
My ears are trained to hear
The messages of Love divine,
So fearless, strong, and clear,
And if I follow where they lead,
I cannot go astray;
I cannot miss a single bliss.
So full of Heaven are they;
And thus in every hour I prove
The Truth so sweetly given:
Love is another name for God;
To dwell in Love is Heaven.
